AA.4: Each student curator is required to produce a formal research paper for their particular “room.” This is much like a museum catalog paper art historical researchers write specific research arguments about the exhibition to add to a catalogue (I suggest that you look at a recent museum exhibition catalogue for writing samples). These individual research papers must form specific arguments connecting the choice of artworks to the theme utilizing academic research to support all arguments made.This paper is not a guide to the exhibit and stands alone. Thus, you will want to avoid listing artifacts or making direct reference to the digital exhibition space. Write the paper as if the exhibit does not exist and create the exhibit to emphasize the points made in the paper. The paper should begin with an introduction to the theme being considered and rationale for selecting works. A strong thesis statement will lead the paper into discussing works of art, analyzing them in connection with the theme that you have chosen, supporting your argument. The paper must then include a conclusion and must have proper citations throughout in MLA format.The paper should be between 5-7 pages. This paper may be incorporated into the exhibition, but you must consider the method of delivery as 5-7 pages of text is unlikely to be read by the average museum-goer. If you wish to combine this with your museum project, consider cutting out bits of useful information to display with the works that you have chosen.Due on the last day of the term.
